  1. aBest tree (tree 1) and trees supporting the monophyly of green plants + Heterolobosea among all the possible 105 trees retaining six monophyletic groups in Fig. 1.
  2. bGreen, green plants; Htrl, Heterolobosea; Glauco, Glaucophyta; EuSt, Euglenida and Stramenopiles; Red, red algae; Out, eukaryotic ancestral clade and cyanobacteria. Intra-group topologies of six groups are fixed as shown in Fig. 1.
  3. cDifference in the log-likelihood value of alternative tree versus the 'best' tree.
  4. dProbability values of the approximately unbiased (AU) and Kishino-Hasegawa (KH) tests.
  5. eBootstrap support value of resampling estimated log-likelihood with 10,000 replicates.
  6. Asterisks indicate the topologies supporting the monophyly of Green + Htrl + EuSt.
